I heard that while fun it was a bit on the expensive side.I also heard it was way too hard, so if we can't find somebody to play with it should be too frustrating to defeat the bosses. If more people decide to get it I might give it a go.

If you have experience with Castlevania games you should be able to beat it solo with Shanoa. Basically out of all the characters (non dlc ones anyways) she's the most powerful to start with, though the other characters will catch up with her but if you want to solo without grinding play as Shanoa.

Been a while since i posted here, but i step in every ao often to see what's up, stay in the loop, etc. I've had this since it launched on 360, and all the dlc as well. It's a great game and makes for an awesome multiplayer experience. I will probably pick this up next week for lulz, and gladly do some runs with anyone here. I should mention i'm pretty beastly with alucard.

Quick point of advice to everyone, luck does NOT affect rare drops...ever. Just drop rates. Been there, done that, tried every luck boost around. Doesn't help, just gotta grind forever and a day. Also important, soma is arguably the best character in game, followed closely by a maxed out johnathan, and alucard with minimally 2 valmanways, just in case anyone here is really concerned with tier lists or speed runs and such.

This game is amazing, worth every penny. They could make this formula work forever if they just kept adding new items and stages.

I feel like I'm playing a full-blown MMORPG with how connected to my character I am. I haven't been so drawn to a game in a while, let alone a downloadable one.

I'm Mojotron on PSN if you guys decide to buy this. Also Farron, its very quick and easy to join random groups online, and it makes things very easy. I've been duo'ing with a friend (which is a good way to learn the stages) but a full group of randoms is still easier, if less intimate. All you have to do is pick a direction and fight, instead of plotting a course to get chests and get to the boss.

Getting long winded... but are there any better swords for Soma than Hrunting that aren't Valmanway? The shop has no more gear for me, and while my vacuum cleaner/punching attacks are great, my buddy's Alucard has been getting all kinds of new weapons and is outdamaging me.

Chapter 5 hard mode you can start finding yasutsunas, which are high powered katanas, though alucard gets to run and slash with his equipped. You could also aim for a badelaire which is attack power based on total time in game. Fist of tulkas is nice, but seriously short ranged. If you really need some thing new though, beat hard chapter 6. New stuff appears in the ahop.

Certain characters use the same equipment, for example alucard and soma use most of the weapons, though alucard can't use lances and soma can't equip shields. Everyone can use winged boots, which i HIGHLY recommend having on all the time. And yes, one pair is good enough for all.

I'm gonna be on in about 2 hours, if anyone wants to team up. I play a mean alucard.
